Re: Salesforce, but for Dating
#42Can someone chime in why this hasn't worked in the past? It seems a personal/portable CRM could be highly useful. The second aspect is the vertical aspect (professional or "personal") One thing I keep hearing from people that have sold companies, exited etc. is that they are having a hard time operating within their networks without the CRM.

#43I was thinking about something similar, but less cringy. More like: hey you haven't messaged your friend in 6 months, maybe you should ask them how they are doing. A priority queue but to help keep friendships alive.
There have been several iterations of this sort of idea — a personal CRM — and the main issue I have is they should automatically scan my emails, texts and chats to figure out my friends and suggest that I reach out. Also, want it to be 100% local and privacy first.

But I also want an AI personal assistant to know what to write to everyone, what we last did, what would they be interested in, and so on.

#44Dating has a large emotional aspect. Using heavyweight management software for this kind of thing is ridiculous. If you need CRM to remind yourself of the emotional impact you had on a date, then some part of this process has gone horribly wrong.

Like you should know by the end of the date if you want another one or not.

#46P.S. Marc Benioff, please don't sue us. Remember that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
Thing is it has nothing to do with how some exec feel about the product.
Corporations don't like stuff like because they don't want to deal with clients who don't understand the joke being playing with their brand. OP isn't going to be the one who has to do damage control when this blows up and some percentage of people start to to believe it's actual Salesforce behind this product.

Lots of attempts over the years at this personal crm problem space but no success to date. I did one on Facebook platform in 2008-09 called Socialfly, our tagline was ‘be twice the friend in half the time’. Problem is there’s a lot of input and upkeep which limits appeal, the most important social data sources (text & phone) are not accessible via api, its a personal tool that you don’t necessarily want to tell other…
I remember using Socialfly! I wasn't a heavy user, but I actually quite liked it and was a bit disappointed when it went away.

#50Earlier quoted context omitted.
I remember moaning about twitter reducing the number of characters people sent, and then yo! came out, and it was down to a single bit of data. That made me think 'what would even lower information content messages look like in a social network, perhaps half a bit or even less?'. I figured that a half bit of data would be where a social network sent some sort of hello message automatically with the same frequency the…
> combined with ChatGPT we could even make those automatic getting-back-in-touch messages indistinguishable from the manual ones extending this bit further - we might as well reply with chatGPT. then it's chatGPT all the way down, who needs human interaction when we tick the boxes of "I called them" and "I replied"?.. :)
